The Sustainable Workplace Alliance (SWA) proposes to provide model training and outreach to workers engaged in emergency preparation and response activities. The overarching goal of this program is to prevent work-related harm by assisting in teaching first responders how best to protect themselves and their communities from exposure to hazardous materials during emergency response. For the last seven years, SWA and its alliance partners have been leading the HAZMAT P.A.C.T. (Pacific Atlantic & Caribbean Training) initiative, and as a continuation of that initiative, we will focus on providing outreach in Florida, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Hawaii. Additionally, we will service the U.S. Territories of the Pacific Islands, including American Samoa, Guam, Palau, and the Northern Mariana Islands. These locations are especially vulnerable to severe weather related emergencies compounded by the effects of climate change. Our needs assessments for other grant programs have identified other emergencies such as oil spills, overturned tanker trucks, factory fires, ammonia & chlorine leaks and first responder exposure to opioids as being current concerns for first responders and we will provide training in these areas. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, worker populations in our geographic targets include nearly 94,000 workers serving as first responders, including fire, police and paramedics. Trainees would typically be employed as fire fighters (career and volunteer), HAZMAT response team members, police or paramedics. Additionally, Community Emergency Response Team members, Local Emergency Planning Committee members and first receivers at hospitals. Over the five year duration of this Hazmat Disaster Preparedness Training Program (HDPTP), SWA will conduct 245 classes, train 3,205 responders and cover 38,000 contact hours. This model training and outreach program is designed to reduce injuries and death has an obvious positive effect on public health. By providing HDPTP outreach to first responders and citizen response teams, we will foster whole community resiliency and develop responders that are less likely to cause harm to themselves, the community and the environment while performing their job as a responder.

可持续工作场所联盟（SWA）建议提供示范培训， 与从事应急准备和反应活动的工作人员进行外联。 该计划的首要目标是通过协助防止与工作有关的伤害， 教导第一反应者如何最好地保护自己和他们的社区， 在应急反应期间接触危险材料。 在过去的七年里，SWA及其联盟伙伴一直在领导HAZMAT P.A.C. T（太平洋、大西洋和加勒比培训）倡议，并作为该倡议的延续， 我们将重点在佛罗里达、波多黎各、美属维尔京群岛和夏威夷提供外展服务。 此外，我们还将为太平洋岛屿的美国领土提供服务，包括美国 萨摩亚、关岛、帕劳和北方马里亚纳群岛。这些地点尤其 易受气候影响加剧的与恶劣天气有关的紧急情况影响 变化我们对其他赠款项目的需求评估确定了其他紧急情况 例如石油泄漏、油罐车翻倒、工厂火灾、氨和氯泄漏以及第一次 响应者暴露于阿片类药物是第一响应者当前关注的问题，我们将 提供这些领域的培训。根据劳工统计局的数据， 在我们的地理目标中，包括近94，000名作为第一反应者的工作人员， 消防员警察和医护人员 受训人员通常被雇用为消防员（职业和志愿者）， 队员警察或医护人员此外，社区应急小组 成员，当地应急计划委员会成员和医院的第一接收者。 在为期五年的危险品备灾培训计划（HDPTP）中， SWA将举办245个课程，培训3,205名应急人员，覆盖38,000个接触小时。 这种模式的培训和推广计划的目的是减少受伤和死亡有一个 对公共卫生有明显的积极作用。 通过向第一响应者和公民响应团队提供HDPTP外展，我们将促进 整个社区的弹性和发展反应，不太可能造成伤害， 在履行应急人员职责的同时，他们还应保护自己、社区和环境。
